Welcome to Clarke Gardens! This nature lover's paradise encompasses 28 idyllic acres of wooded walking trails, picturesque marshlands, and 1,000 +/- feet of Perch Creek water frontage, just off Dog River. This unique property was designed and developed architect Fred Clarke as a public garden showcasing a wide variety of camellias, azaleas, and many other specimens of botanical beauty along over a mile of walking trails. Waterfowl and other species of wildlife can also be seen. There are three residential structures on the property, the main residence and two guest houses, each one with scenic views of Perch Creek and the marshlands. The main house was designed by Clarke to be his residence. Since then, there have been renovations, but it still has that old river house feel with wood floors and beadbord walls. It is a 4 bedroom 2.5 bath house with 3200 sq ft of living area. In addition to the three houses, there's a barn, a large shed, and two concrete platforms for washing horses next to the shed. This is truly a one-of-a-kind property with many possibilities and endless potential, and should be seen to be appreciated.
